Mysterier

The Royal Danish Ballet The Royal Theatre , Copenhagen, 12 October 1994

Review Extracts

"Like a magician he transforms the stage into a magnetic forcefield . His 'Mysterier' creates a cool atmosphere of anticipation - reminiscent of Edward Hopper. It is liberating that Brandstrup lets his unique sense of rhythm and space guide him and never becoms confined by a story . This is modern ballet with a classical sensability - a condensed dance drama created for the Royal's dancers per excellence. God save Brandstrup"

Monna Dithmer, Politiken

"The evenings most interesting piece was without doubt Kim Brandstrup's 'Mysterier' - who with his hypnotic repetitions of the 'somnabular' theme literally managed to slowly build a intense vibrant universe of mystery, of dreams,longings and ties that has to be broken"
